The Kansas State High School Activities Association came into existence in 1937, but prior to that year there were other associa- tions governing various types of interscholastic activities, all of which cooperated in formulating a unification program that re- sulted in the birth of the present Association. In the early 1930s a movement was started to organize an association to embrace all existing associations dealing with interschool events and with authority to supervise and regulate all interscholastic activities. After a number of years of study and planning by committees representing the High School Principals Association and other organizations such as the Debate League, Typists Association and Music Educators Association, the Board of Control and head- quarters staff of the Athletic Association were requested to assist in the formation of a new activities association and take over its administration.
